Elf: Chosen Ranger

Chapter 13 Planting Yanghua grass in the expanding forest

In the dim living room, Nie Zi poured a cup of steaming coffee and put it on the table. He glanced around the empty room and sat casually on the sofa nearby.

"Has Ma Li gone out to train? You're really working hard."

That kid was more talented and worked harder than me, and unknowingly he had become very popular in Spike Town.

When she grows up to a certain level, she should step down from her position, and only then can fresh life lead the decayed town to new life.

"No, I have no idea. Let's read today's newspaper." Nie Zi looked at the ceiling, sighed, picked up the coffee and stood up to go to the dining table.

There were toasted slices of bread and fried eggs on the plate on the table, and today's newspaper was placed aside.

"I told you that you don't need to make breakfast for me."

Nie Zi shook his head. Although he said this, there was already a faint smile on his face. He pulled out the chair, picked up the bread with one hand, and opened the newspaper with the other hand to read.

"It's still the same news as before. Well, after all, it's Spike Town's own newspaper."

His eyes swept down and stopped on a black and white picture.

"This person looks familiar. Let's take a look. Sunset Forest ranger Xia Ye is arresting Pokémon hunters. Oh, that boy."

Nie Zi remembered that it was the guy who asked questions at the end of the previous concert. It turned out to be the ranger of the Sunset Forest. But does such a remote forest also need a ranger?
"My name is Xia Ye. She seems quite optimistic and doesn't look like she's being ostracized."

Nie Zi thought for a moment, if he could give him some fan benefits next time he saw him again.

"But there are really stupid people who become Pokémon hunters. Well, they are still fugitives after committing the crime of stealing. They only serve 20 years in prison. It's too light."

He drank the last sip of coffee and emptied the food on the plate. After clearing the tableware, Nie Zi sat back on the sofa in the living room. He looked at the white paper on the table with a serious look.

"Okay, let's start composing today. I just have some inspiration now."

[Bringing Pokémon hunters to justice will expand the area of ​​the forest. 】

[Acquire the ranger skill to become stronger and stronger. Effect: Your strength is stronger than that of ordinary people. 】

After returning to the forest cabin, Xia Ye lay on the bed and was finally able to determine the meaning of this sentence.

It was midnight when he caught Blanc. Because of his newly acquired skills, he easily carried the guy to the police station, shocking the police officers on duty.

Hearing that he was a Pokémon hunter, the policeman on duty immediately perked up and sat in front of the computer to search for Blanc's information. He was surprised to find that the guy foaming at the mouth in front of him was actually a fugitive. This crime alone was enough to arrest him. This guy's.

After throwing Blanc into the temporary prison, the police on duty and Xia Ye went to the open space where Morubek was captured to collect evidence. After working for half a night, they finally determined the fact that he was poaching Pokémon.

During this period, Blanc woke up once. The policeman on duty originally wanted to interrogate him, but he didn't expect that he fainted again after seeing Xia Ye. This guy was obviously quite kind.

For capturing a Pokémon hunter, the Spike Town Police Department rewarded Xia Ye with [-] alliance points, which was almost half a month's salary.

"Expand the forest, then."

Xia Ye called up the elevation of Sunset Forest, and he discovered that there was an open space in the northeast, which was an area that did not exist before.

"If the forest area expands, won't there be any abnormalities outside?"

[No, the total range of Sunset Forest will not increase. The increased range is the distortion that occurs internally. ] "Ah, twisted?"

Distorting space, this already involves the power of space, but making trees grow rapidly and optimizing varieties is also quite nonsense, so let's ignore it for now.

Because he was dealing with Pokémon hunters, Xia Ye just wanted to sleep now. He looked at the sound-sleeping monkey next to him and closed his eyes. When he opened them again, it was already noon.

After a simple lunch with the knocking monkey, Xia Ye decided to take a look at the added area first. According to the elevation, there should be no vegetation there.

Green oaks and black pine trees surround the circular clearing side by side. The bare and exposed large areas of soil in the clearing give people a strange feeling.

"It's amazing, but does it really mean what it says?"

Xia Ye walked towards the edge of the Sunset Forest. The moment he left the forest, the trees behind him recessed, exactly the same as the outline in his memory.

"So this is what the so-called distortion means. Did you see it, tone-tapping monkey?"

The knocking monkey rubbed his eyes and showed an expression of disbelief. Is this an illusion?The tree actually moved just now.

"It seems that the scene we saw is the same. Don't worry, this is actually good for the forest."

Xia Ye touched the head of the sound monkey. The appearance of the Pokémon hunter made him realize that this forest could not always be peaceful. To be honest, the guy was not very powerful, but the Morubeks were still caught.

The reason is that they lack aggression, no, it should be a sense of self-defense, but it doesn't matter, he has the skill of forest contract.

Then the next key is how to improve the overall strength of the Pokémon in the forest. It is definitely unrealistic for him to train all the Pokémon in the forest by himself, but the appearance of Blue Jay gave him an idea.

Just train the leader of this group of Pokémon and let it radiate to the members under his command, thereby improving the overall strength.

"Well, let's plant Yanghua grass in that open space."

Being loved by grass-type Pokémon can naturally attract grass-type Pokémon to settle down. Increasing the types of Pokémon is also a way to improve the self-defense ability of the forest.

Xia Ye and the knocking monkey returned to the open space, and he began to sow the seeds of Yanghua grass. After finishing, he looked at the empty space without any plants and thought about what would happen if the rapid growth was placed on the Yanghua grass. Can it make a grass grow quickly?

This time the ranger assistant didn't respond to him, so he had no choice but to stretch out his hand and shout:
"grow rapidly!"

Xia Ye's hands emitted a faint green light, and new green teeth broke through the soil and came out. They stopped growing when they reached about 5 centimeters.

According to the knowledge in Xia Ye's memory, Yanghuacao can grow up to 30 centimeters, but it doesn't look mature at all now.

"It seems that one day's energy is only enough to grow to this extent?"

Xia Ye is not in a hurry. He still has a lot of time. He can just spend the next few days cultivating Yanghua Grassland.

Although it is a seedling, the knocking monkey on Xia Ye's shoulder still shows a comfortable expression and is quite enjoying it.

Xia Ye also closed his eyes and felt it carefully. He felt the gentle sunshine of spring, and a warmth penetrated his whole body.

So it turns out that Xia Ye now understands why Sunflower Grass is loved by grass-type Pokémon, because it emits an aura similar to the sun, which is exactly their favorite aura.
